You don't have to be a billionaire to do self-publishing. If you check my website, you'll see it too (It's in my profile). What do you think what was the cost of that site? Well, only the music had a license price and the domain had a price and that's all. Everything else is self made, including the arts. Marketing detto. And I'm not a billionaire. Not even close. Officially I'm Mr. writer no-name, without any real marketing and additional background. If I can do this, everyone else is capable to do the same. It's not a miracle. It's just hard work and endurance... something what all of us know since we started to write.
